how to record gameplay sessions

If you ever want to record direct feed from your gameplay, look no further. This is what you need. Hauppauge sent over its Hauppauge HD PVR Gaming Edition for review. I’ll be putting it through its paces this holiday season and incorporating some of the footage it captures in upcoming videos.

Opening the box, I was surprised at the size of it. The unit is smaller than what I expected. It comes with all the cords you’ll need to record from PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360. Hooking the device up took a half-hour. It will require you to either move your PC next to your game console or vice versa. That’s because you’ll have to use a PC and its hard drive to record all the footage. After installing all the drivers and required software, it worked smoothly. I did have trouble deciphering the wire set-up and setting it up to record at 720p. I’ll write more about the $199 recorder in the coming weeks.
But for now, here are more unboxing photos.
